KDE desktop switch and popup window

Hi,

I used to bind/assign CTRL + ² (exponant 2) to switch to the next 
desktop.  I have a belgian keyboard layout and that key is the first key 
below the ESC key or above the TAB key.

When I used CTRL + ², it used to show me a little 'popup' window where I 
could see the amount of windows (e.g. firefox, gvim and dolphin with the 
titles for each window) on the next desktop and it kept on changing the 
content of that little popup windows if I kept on pressing CTRL + ² by 
displaying the opened windows for the next desktop etc.

But it only changed the desktop only when I released the keys.  That 
way, I could stay on desktop 1, browser quickly through my other 
desktops and stop on the one that contained the opened windows that I 
needed to work on.

Is this still available I can't find it in the menus since Kubuntu 10.04 ?

Thank you for your help,
Laurent

BTW: CTRL + ³ (which is CTRL + SHIFT + ²) never worked.
